A flint core of Mesolithic to early Neolithic date c. 9000-3300 BC. The core is conical with a single hard hammered striking platform with a pronounced bulb of percussion and a large area of cortex remaining. There are four unidirectional long blade removals around the core,two with hinged terminations.  The flint is transluscent grey in colour. Dimensions: length: 48.2mm; width: 39.7mm; height: 39.1mm and weight: 50.59g.  This core was found in scattered spread of flint finds; see: SUSS-793E72 and SUSS-66C0E8

Levallois core in fresh condition, of mottled grey flint, now lightly patinated a sandy colour. The flint has some linier thermal (frost) cracks within the flint, these are present on both faces though the flint seems quite stable, a small “potlid” thermal fracture has detached on the underside, at the bottom of this damage is a small, light grey patch of a coarse inclusion in the flint, this is the cause of this sub-discoidal thermal fracture at this point. The core has typical hard hammer centripetal flaking to both faces, one steeper than the other in the conventional …

A small flint core probably of Mesolithic date to Early Neolithic date (c. 9000 - 3300 BC). The object is made from a dark-grey/dark-brown translucent flint. The surface of the flint is very clear and is not covered by any white patina associated with recortication. However, there is an area of cortex remaining on the flint. The object has a sub-conical shape. It is most likely an example of a conical bladelet core. There is a single striking platform, which serves as the flat base of the cone-like object. There is also a single flaking surface that wraps around the remaind…

Flint possible core fragment. A small chunk with narrow parallel flakes struck from its dorsal side and  with a rounded or bulbar ventral surface. A creamy patina across all struck surfaces suggests the object has subsequently endured a period of exposure to a calcareous environment, and iron-spotting may suggest its incorporation in gravel. More than one episode of working is possible. As the find-spot is not on chalk the patina may hint that it has been imported.

A complete flint probable Core Rejuvenation Flake of Mesolithic date (9000-3450 BC). The object is conical in shape and exhibits a single striking platform. There are multiple negative flake removals from blade production. The ventral surface is flat with two negative scars. All edges with the exception of the striking platform have rough semi-abrupt retouch and suggests the object is a utilised flake. The lithic retains no cortex and is therefore a tertiary flake. The flint is dark grey in colour. Length: 32.30mm, Width: 28.53mm, Thickness: 9.66mm, Weight: 10.8g.
